#IWD2023 is not just one day…
Technology is way too important for women to be excluded from its development and use. Encourage all girls to study school subjects like mathematics, single sciences, technology, programming and keep doors open at ‘A’ level and for university access, it allows girls to access knowledge and exciting well paid STEM careers and prosper, enabling other women’s success in health, wealth and wisdom. Challenge stereotypes, girls should aim high and follow their dreams, so many don’t have the chance yet.
Educate,educate,educate to succeed. Soroptimist bywords. Our SIGBI Soroptimist Diamond Education Grant helps women work returners to retrain and update skills in technology. Club STEM Soroptimist bursaries and grants/prizes enable girls from disadvantaged background to access help and finances.https://sigbi.org/what-we-do/our-charities/deg/
